N47M to the Golden Eaglets team for their victory at the
2013 Under-17 World Championship.
The eaglets along with their coach and technical staff were
received by President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday,
November 10, 2013 who hosted a reception in honour of
the players at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Each of the 19 young stars received the sum of N2m for
emerging victors at the competition held in the U.A.E.
The head coach Manu Garba received a cash gift of N3m
the assistant coaches got N2.5m each; the team doctor,
physiotherapist and team secretary got N500,000 each
while the team technical officer, team coordinator, medical
officers and the curator got N300,000 each.
It is also believed they received different landed properties.
'The team, the handlers, the coaches and the officials
including some key members of the supporters club and the
Nigerian Football Federation will all be rewarded when we
give national honours', he said.
Earlier, the Eaglets had also met up with Nigerian Pop
singer Davido and from the Instagram photo we saw, it was
a happy-wild encounter.
